I can give you a list of Chris Catlin rides on the AW that drifted like a barge and were slowly away(98% of the time, he perfected it). I alerted the BHB and not much later he 'retired.'

Take your pick from the many tender rides Seamie Heffernan gave to Ballydoyle 2nd strings down through the years.

I couldn't be bothered Cag. Just search Catlin rides on the Racing Post at Southwell, 98% missed the break, incredibly unlucky jockey with the kickback like it was.
I was meaning the Fibresand kickback. |

By:
An endless list of rodents never to grace the turf again…..good riddance…

By:
What about the ones he won on Monarch, when he obviously should not have?
Same old conspiracy sh!t with no evidence eh Swifty? Catlin one of the most consistent during his main career and only his last 2 years saw a decline from the norm, pulled 6 from 7 rides in his last year Swifty? |
|
By:
Not into conspiracies, just deal with the facts, no doubt Catlin got word he'd been rumbled and took the workrider job at Godolphin.
He was consistent alright. |
|
By:
Give us the evidence then Swifty? In print or/and your part in his decision?
I can certainly reciprocate, done so here previously in terms of Oscar Urbina ( work rider with Godolphin) and Greg Chung for real events? |

Betfair became a licence to print money for the journeymen jocks, a handful got caught, plenty didn't.

mitolo, I had correspondence with the BHB, but thanks for your input, what number bottle are you on currently?

swifty getting a hard time, but not a jockey I have fond memories of either, and a quick delve into the archives to see how popular CC was back in the day, and fair to say he had quite a 'fan club' on here.

is that where the 98% came from? or did you make it up? losing an argument with toby is a rum do and possibly unprecedented
irrelevant. why do you ask? last time you got the ump you accused me of being a drug addict. bit sensitive aint we? as you are desperate to know; 1. late start due to late night |

Same sources as swifty pulling out a story for the thread?
Provide evidence if you can, the conspiracy sh!t is not only boring but we could all create one if we were bored? |

By:
maybe they are ll right. or wrong. irrelevant. i dont look at any of em so dont know
i suspect you could do similar for a good number of jokeys. and its not evidence of anything other than forum-dwellers are malcontents in the main, always on the lookout out for a sinister motive |
|
By:
The facts are the BHB signed a MoU with Betfair, the so-called paper trails would help root out the cheats, then reality struck, they'd opened a can of worms and none of it was legally enforceable.

By:
98% true

|
By:
only the jockeys know the truth, unless they have their private phonecalls hacked when riding in India, the forum will never know.
|
|
By:
what the forum knows aint worth knowing
you should give it up. its so obviously bent |
|
By:
I know plenty of it's bent. The whole UK handicap system ensures it. Betfair only cemented it.
Give up? No thanks, I make an OK living, but thanks for your advice. |
